Limited funding is available for graduate students to supplement thesis research and for conference attendance.

Graduate Thesis Funding

Graduate students are eligible to
claim certain expenses related to their thesis work. The following
research related expenses are eligible for claims for reimbursement:

travel for data collection

printing

photocopy cards

mailing

telephone cost

minor items of equipment (e.g., tapes, disks)

transcription cost

The
maximum amount allowable for any individual student is normally $200.
Students may make claims in excess of $200 and any balance remaining in
the fund at the end of the year may be distributed at the discretion of
the Graduate Studies Scholarships, Assistantships, and Awards Committee.

Applications must be submitted on the application form which
requires a signature from the Supervisor to confirm that the research
has been approved and that the expenses are justified. All claims must
be made after the expense has been incurred and must be accompanied by
receipts for every item claimed.

Applications for reimbursement of
expenses must be accompanied by confirmation that the research has been
approved by the University Ethics Research Board and the thesis
committee (or relevant faculty member).
